Genesis 47:1-6

1So JosephH3130 wentH935 and toldH5046 PharaohH6547H559: “My fatherH1 and my brothersH251, with their flocksH6629 and herdsH1241 and allH3605 they ownH834, have comeH935 from the landH776 of CanaanH3667 and are nowH2005 in GoshenH776H1657.”

2

And he choseH3947 fiveH2568 ofH582 his brothersH251 and presented themH3322 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547.

3“WhatH4100 is your occupationH4639?” PharaohH6547 askedH559 Joseph’s brothersH251.

“Your servantsH5650 are shepherdsH7462H6629,” they repliedH559H413H6547, “bothH1571 weH587 andH1571 our fathersH1.”

4Then they saidH559 toH413 PharaohH6547, “We have comeH935 to live in the landH776 for a timeH1481, becauseH3588 there is noH369 pastureH4829 for the flocksH6629 of your servantsH5650, sinceH3588 the famineH7458 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667 has been severeH3515. So nowH6258, pleaseH4994 allow your servantsH5650 to settleH3427 in the landH776 of GoshenH1657.”

5PharaohH6547 saidH559 toH413 JosephH3130H559, “Now that your fatherH1 and brothersH251 have comeH935 to youH413, 6the landH776 of EgyptH4714 is before youH6440H1931; settleH3427 your fatherH1 and brothersH251 in the bestH4315 part of the landH776. They may dwellH3427 in the landH776 of GoshenH1657. And ifH518 you know ofH3045H3426 any talentedH2428 men among themH582, put themH7760 in charge ofH8269 my own livestockH4735H5921.”
